Bug Description
DC++ seems to use Mibit/s for its connection speeds, which feels very confusing. Setting my 100 Mbps Ethernet connection to "100" in DC++ just wouldn't be correct, because it would make the connection show up as ~105 Mbps. I'm not aware of any ISPs that are selling their connections in Mibits.
Making conversions with the connection speeds sent by DC++ is also somehow confusing, which I noticed when improving the list filter in AirDC++ to handle connection speed filtering. How can you filter DC++ users that have a 1 G(i)bit/s connection? You can't, because 1000 Mibit/s that is listed by DC++ is kind of impossible to convert to such units (unless you use long decimal numbers...).
